I'd recommend an initial consultation with an immigration attorney. Very often they are free, or at least affordable. I would query what your options might be. While in that consultation, you might also ask if he or she recommends what I've heard some aliens have done in cases like yours where the US citizen spouse will not apply jointly. They have submitted the I-751 noting "d" on the form. Yes, I know that a divorce decree must be available, but I suspect aliens that submit the form prior to finalising the divorce are doing so to buy a little time, and I believe they have attached a letter indicating that a divorce is in process but the divorce has not yet been finalised.

Anyway, there's too much at stake with your permanent residency to rest on ideas you might gain from an immigration message board. it's time to get yourself an expert that can guide you to do what's best for your situation.

Please let VJ know how things work out... It will be valuable information for (unfortunately) many people.

Good luck
